[Motorola Photon 4G] deedscreen:
Um, hold up! Have you tried the AIO OCR? Once you go OCR, you'll never go back...

and yes, the Photon can't compare to the EVO, (except the kickstand of course!)
[Motorola Photon 4G] dsims7_2000:
I had Evo 4G and got Photon 08/02/2011. 3 weeks later I rooted it, and 4 days later I put it back to stock. Even if they came out with unlocked bootloader, I'm staying put, lovely directly right out the box. I have SPB 3D Shell (which some claim it a resource hog. Maybe? I reboot maybe once a week?) but it gives me a unique look and feel and I like the organization with it. Battery is decent compared to others, I last a work day, but I really to play with mine.

As stated, up to you. Personally, almost any smartphone on the market today has a heck of alot of Pro's compared to Con's!
[Motorola Photon 4G] bholoo:
Thanks so much! Im pretty sure this is the one im going to buy, because my awesome hero has just gotten to old for my liking. Happy Thanksgiving!
[HTC EVO 3D] Drake9897:
I remember hearing when the 3d first came out that the Evo 3d had capability for lye as if sprint was planning on upgrading to lye I was wondering if there was a way you revs could activate the lye that we supposidly have because Idk like todo roam onto Verizon's lte that walkersville MD has...
[HTC EVO 3D] Drake9897:
Im sorry for misspelling lte with lye bk8 kept autocorrecting me...
[HTC EVO 3D] miguelfp1:
sorry, but the Evo doesn't have LTE capabilities... there was talk of the chipset supporting it, but the phone does not have the required hardware (antennas, etc.)
[HTC EVO 3D] Drake9897:
Thanks froth the quick reply :D, is there any way I can add the hardware in because my parents love to take the modem with them places and 4g would be so much better on my ps3 then Verizon 3g
[HTC EVO 3D] gk1984:
Just to confirm, I asked htc directly and they said there was no lte capability in the EVO 3D.

Installing a radio to support it? No clue but you'd probably have to program the OS and radio software to use it too
[HTC EVO 3D] Drake9897:
I don't know anything about installing radios or making the ps support just wondering if it was possible... Thanks for the replyz guys
[HTC EVO 3D] raptoro07:
For all intents and purposes, modifying the hardware is not possible.
[HTC EVO 3D] mjcole2003:
...and it sucks that sprint got rid of the premier accounts of upgrading phones once a year. I love my phone but I wish it was compatible with lte
[HTC EVO 3D] gk1984:
I think we should all petition for them to allow us to get lte enabled phones or upgrade our existing ones to support lte when they launch. We got screwed out of 4G. Verizon was able to upgrade the xoom for lte afterall.
[HTC EVO 3D] mjcole2003:
Definately I agree. I've been with sprint for like 13 or more years now. Being a long time customer I should be able to take advantage of LTE when it does come out. Any idea when that will be?
[HTC EVO 3D] Hmgrepper:
I know this is a fairly new thread, but had anyone found any forum or sprint contact point to make formal request / petition for LTE upgrade?

I would love to get on board. I've been paying 4g data premium since I got the evo 4g, and other than a couple days in Chicago, new York, and Charlotte, it's been a waste.

Sad but it is tempting me to take my 5 phone lines to Verizon.

is there any other custom rom except Compiled CM 7 with working skype video on infuse

thanks!!
[Samsung Infuse 4G] BadFishCM:
Pretty much any rom that is GB 2.3.x it will work on. Just make sure you go into the settings in skype and activate video calling.

I've tested on infused, bionix, the leaks, simply honey, and sensation.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mk2vr6:
Have flashed my S2 a few times, and happy with XXKI4, and also rooted using the CF-Root method.

However, seem to be getting a few Force Close errors here and there.

Market sometimes force closes when im not even using it, And if i go to Settings-Location+Security-Find my mobile, both Sim change alert, and remote controls throw up a com.android.settings Force Close.

I have wiped cache, dalvik cache, and fixed permissions using CMW recovery.

Any ideas chaps?

Thanks. :)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mk2vr6:
Would a Hard reset maybe solve this?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] It_ler:
Would be my first impression too.

Just do a complete system / nandroid backup in recovery mode (or by using the CWM Manager app).

Then Boot into recovery mode and do a factory reset.

Then reboot into recovery again, wipe cache partition and Dalvik cache too.

Then reboot the phone.

If that does not help, then you may have to flash the ROM (and afterwards CF-Root kernel) again.

Please remember to backup before and wiping cache(s) after flashing.

That will prevent most common FCs.

Good luck !

[HTC Rezound] Whi7eRa66iT:
Walk into a Verizon Store. I just purchased the mobile cradles for my RZnd and my wifes TB for a whomping $40. I know if you purchase three accessories, you get a discount. The vehicle Cradle for the RZnd is actually quite nice. The power attaches to the cradle and a static connector is built into that. Just doc the phone and plug in the headphone jack and your off. I KNOW this is not a desk dock but it can be used as one. The desk dock was NOT that expensive.. I think $20...
[HTC Rezound] zetsumeikuro:
I went in the store and the the $50 dollar deck for 20. The warehouse mispriced the deck @ $30 + a $10 dollar discount I got 8). I'm not too sure if they corrected the prices, so it's worth a shot.

What exactly do docks do besides be another charger?

I'm living on a yellow submarine
[HTC Rezound] maf113:
I have had two of the car docks now and both did not work properly causing a drain instead of the charge on my phone. For example, when playing Pandora with the screen always on and set to 4g, the battery dropped by 10 - 15 % in 30 mins of use. When I plugged it directly to the car charger under the same conditions I got a positive charge going from 60% to 100% in 30 Mins. Same results on 3g. Either the store got a bad batch or something is wrong with my phone. Taking both back tomorrow.

Desktop Dock a must have accessory

Got mine at the Verizon Store when I picked up my Rezound on opening day (Nov. 14th). Glad I did as it now appears to be a scarce item to find. Some helpful hints should you find one, you can change the 3 default apps in "dock mode" by accessing the link through the "Clock" app. You cannot remove or change the default music app in dock mode. It is a must have accessory if you have a Rezound, and is designed to work with standard or extended battery attached. Good luck in your hunt! ;)
[HTC Rezound] Kane5581:
Does it still fit with a tpu or silicone case on it? Also anyone tried using this as a car dock with a usb connection to the car stereo? My car stereo has a usb hookup and I would like to use that for charging and music(less wires) but my stereo seems to have a problem with docks between it and the device, my ipod wont work with its standard dock but works fine with just the wire.
[HTC Rezound] callcom:
In regards to using the desktop dock with a case on the phone, I would have to say probably not. The phone sits pretty snuggly in the dock, and if there was a case on it, it would possibly not fit correctly/deep enough in the dock tray to properly seat the power connection. As for using the desktop dock in a car, I guess it would be possible with a usb/car charger connection and some velcro to mount it. However, since the phone sits in the dock at an angle, it would depend on your dashboard layout to obtain the best viewing angle while driving/in sunlight. If you manage it, post some pics!
[HTC Rezound] Kane5581:
Great the car dock drains the battery and the desk dock would require me removing my case every time. Awesome. Nothing ever just works, except the phone, the phone is awesome.
[HTC Rezound] mc_365:
I'm feeling like the accessories are lacking because this is a verizon exclusive.

HTC need to step the accessories game up like motorola has. We need docks with hdmi output. We need powered car docks. We should have easy options to dock this thing next to a tv and use it like a netbook with a bluetooth keyboard without a tangle mess of adapters.

Have you tried restoring the phone using RSDLite? See instructions at http://droid.koumakan.jp/wiki/SBF for example.

Not flaming or anything, but everytime i posted a thread with this problem, the first sentence is "bootloader is blank"

so when i try to connect to my pc or rsd lite for that matter, theres no response.

So... SBF'ing is out of question. unless theres a way of fixing my bootloader theres no hope and i just have a nice paperweight.

Custom roms simply allow a phone to have better options than stock....just tell your friends rooting is allowing you to access the phones system files and modifying to perform faster and exceed standard stock specifications....kinda think of it as using tweaks on a windows computer....certain tweaks or hacks might change the appearance or overall performance of that system

[Android Themes] VegasEvo4G:
GrammarFreak-

Thank you so much for putting this guide together!! I have been reaching out to multiple people trying to get a few basic questions regarding theming answered. Though I can already do most of this with the rom I'm running, your guide answered several of my general questions that I can now apply to other mods I want to make.

Just to clarify though- system apps such as framework-res, mms, contacts, etc DO NOT need to be signed and therefore can me modified (replace pngs/edit xml's) without decompiling and then pushed or copied straight back into the rom, correct??? :D (When I say 'without decompiling', I know they have to be decompiled to make the edits. I'm talking about how you copied the modded xml back into the compiled apk overwriting the old...) I assume this works the same for png's and .9 png's.

Thanks again!! (Thanks button hit a few times!!)

Ok, I have a hunch about what might be doing the layout in your ROM (I'm assuming it's Samsung based?), but I don't know nearly enough about smali to investigate.

I think there's a piece of smali code somewhere that defines the order that the XML layouts appear, and it's currently showing quickpanel_quick_settings.xml with statusbar_expanded.xml underneath it. If you know enough about smali you can probably dig it up and switch the order.

Sorry I can't help more, but smali code confuses the hell out of me :(
